Pakistan shares market has been flat in 2010 with minor bullish and bearish hiccups mainly because of uncertain political scenario and fragile law and order situation in the country as its army battles against the Taliban insurgents in the northwest. Share prices gained more than 60 percent in 2009 after an abysmal 2008 which saw the once-promising market battered by political turmoil, militancy and the global recession. The benchmark Karachi Stock Exchange KSE-100 index -- which has about 650 listed companies -- closed on New Year's Eve 2009 at 9,386.92, and dealers are still hoping for another jump this year.
